re: Josh Pate talks about how college football will be unrecognizable in 5-10 years

College football needs to actually be college football again, not just 100 hired guns who don't care who they're playing for.

This is the most troubling aspect. As an OU fan it just seems strange that a guy who is probably now the most legendary OU player in the history OU/Texas game bails on you after having been the hero in a game like that. This would have been unthinkable just a few years ago.

An earlier post talked about what it was like 40 years ago. I remember the 1978 National Champion Alabama team having nine offensive starters from the state of Alabama and the entire backfield was from Birmingham.

Hired guns is a pretty apt description of what we are having now. And we already have the NFL for that.
